Which ones do you need? I'm sure that people here could help out!

Where can you get one?

I just remember it being so unique at that time, a game seen from the character's POV. It's common now but back then, it was really special. Geez, I really sound old when I say that. Damn these kids today and the things that they take for granted (waving fist)!

I thought that you could use the light gun on the 7800 version.......

In defense of those who believe everything that they read (I am most certainly not referring to myself but unfortunately to a LARGE portion of our society), some of this is probably thanks to Nintendo. In the instruction manual for their games, there is a full page warning about not using your system on a projection TV. It is very prominent and could be very scary to a non-educated consumer......

I didn't actually play it; I was just testing a bunch that I got in to see if they worked. After that experience, I may never know if I like it because I'm too scared to put it back in the console. I'm currently awaiting the arrival of Pitfall, Zone Ranger and Dreadnaught Factor which I'm hoping are good as I love the 2600 Activision carts!

Okay, I got Congo Bongo over the weekend and went to play it. I had to shove it (what I thought was a little) to get it in the console and I damn near couldn't get it out. Is this a common problem with Sega 5200 carts or is it my console? I've seen stuff about this in the 2600/7800 forums but not here. Are there any other ones to be careful with?

Maybe it is a cross between an Atari and a Pop Tart. No wait, it is the console that plays the elusive "5. Galaxiar 1983 2600 6. Defnder 1981 CX2609 and 7. Night Drivel 1978 CX2633 cartridges....

What do you think that the game Night Drivel would look like? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...3&category=3528

I saw one at one of the stores that I'll be going to (probably) tomorrow if you would like me to pick it up for you.

Congrats! Yard sales here seem to be a desert as far as VGs go......

I don't collect boxes but I have done the same to get a manual. I'll have the cart but wind up buying the cart and manual just to get the manual. Explains how I have 200+ duplicate carts at the moment.

Okay, I got Dragon's Lair for the SNES and it is a totally diferent game than I expected. I THOUGHT I remembered a game from the arcades that was from the main character's (Dirk) perspective where you walked through rooms, found stuff, etc. but what I got was a Mario-style scroller. Am I thinking of a different arcade game or is this just a very unfaithful translation? PS I would be happy to sell or trade it.....

I agree with you 100% on the controllers. They hurt my hand really badly! I mainly play my 2600 games so I leave those joysticks plugged in most of the time.

With MMF's huge collection, I can almost assure you that these are merely his duplicates...... :wink: My collection isn't huge but I probably have in the ballpark of 200 duplicates at this point!

Add this one of his other auctions to it and for $700, you can have a system AND the game..... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3052575896

I couldn't follow the link in the second post so I don't know what it said. Any suggestions if light water won't do? I got in a bunch of carts that must have spent the last 20 years buried in someone's yard......

PM sent!

I love Mickey! What game is that...I couldn't find it in the rarity guide? Laura http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html...wareLabelID=452 Ooohhh, must have....as she heads to e-bay........

I need a new quest so I have decided to try to collect all of the games that have comic book or cartoon characters in them. So far, I have thought of the following games: Taz Road Runner Snoopy and the Red Baron Superman Spiderman GI Joe Flash Gordon Muppets Pigs in Space Big Bird's Egg Catch Alpha Beam with Ernie Cookie Monster Munch Oscar's Trash Race Smurfs Strawberry Shortcake Okay, which ones have I missed?

This guy e-mailed me that he didn't even know if this worked because it has no power supply? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...egory=3537&rd=1 $87????? Am I missing something?

Count me in!!!!

Okay, if you're on the phone comforting someone who just ended a relationship and decide to try to stealthily play a game of Gyruss while talking, do not use the 500XJ. I got totally busted last night....I wasn't doing that uh-huh, uh-huh (read-I am paying no attention to you) and was actually carrying on a conversation and I (foolishly) thought the person on the other end of the line had no clue. WRONG! PS The cat has declared a moratorium on attacking the joysticks.....

I've narrowed it down to just a few so here's a bump.......
